Set Up Checklist

- Lubricate the locomotive

- Check to see whether the battery needs to be charged for full sound eects

- Apply power to run as described in the Basic Operating Section of this manual

Lubrication

You should lubricate the engine to prevent it from squeaking. Use light household oil

and follow the lubrication points marked “L” shown below . Do not over-oil. Use only a

drop or two on each pivot point.

Checking the Battery

You may nd, if your locomotive was built several months before you set it up, that the

rechargeable battery has run down and needs to be charged before operating. If you

notice that the sounds are garbled, test and charge the engine as described in the “Self-

Charging Battery Back-Up” on page 14.

EP-5 Electric Engine with Ps3

Basic Operation

The Throttle knob controls how fast your train will travel. Turn the throttle knob up

½-way, until the engine and caboose lights shine bright. Put the engine into motion by

pressing the Direction button on your transformer once. (hold it for approximately 1

second)

If the engine does not begin to move as soon as you rmly press the Direction button, you

may not have sent enough voltage to the track to make the train move. Turn the throttle

up a bit higher until the train begins to move.

Activating Features

Throttle - To increase or decrease track voltage, and therefore train speed, turn the throttle

control knob. Turning clockwise will increase voltage and speed, while turning counter-

clockwise will decrease voltage and speed. The engine will maintain the speed you set

after you release the throttle until you turn it again to change the voltage and speed.

Bell - To sound the bell, in an engine equipped with a bell rmly press and release the

Bell button. To turn the bell o, press and release the Bell button again. The bell will

continue to ring from the time you turn it on until you press and release the button again

to turn it o.

Horn/Whistle - To sound the whistle, rmly press the Horn/Whistle button. The whis-

tle will sound for as long as you continue to depress the button. It will stop when you

release the button.

Direction - Your train is programmed to start in neutral. The train will always cycle

neutral-forward-neutral-reverse with each press and release of the direction button. The

engine is programmed to restart in neutral each time the track voltage is turned o for 25

seconds or more.

Proto-Sound® 3.0 Operating Instructions

This manual contains the operating instructions for Proto-Sound® 3.0 in conventional mode only. Instructions

for accessing DCS command mode features accompany the DCS Remote Control System equipment.

Activating Proto-Sound® 3.0 Conventional Mode Features:

Proto-Sound® 3.0 features are activated by sequences of Bell and Horn/Whistle button pushes described below.

Please read the full descriptions of each feature before using it. To use these buttons to activate features rather

than to blow the horn/ whistle or ring the bell, you should tap the buttons very quickly with a ½-second pause

between button presses. You may need to practice your timing to make this work smoothly.

Freight Yard Sounds (FYS) or

Passenger Station Announcements (PSA):

Your engine is equipped with a sound package of either freight yard or passenger station sounds that you can

play. Each sequence described below will play as long as it is left on, randomly generating sounds, but be sure

to allow approximately 30 seconds between the button pushes described below to allow the FYS/PSA sucient

time to run through each sequence.

To cue the sound system to play the FYS/PSA, quickly but rmly tap the Bell button once followed by 2 quick

taps of the Horn/Whistle button while the engine is moving. Tap the buttons quickly but allow approximately ½

second between each press.

Press the Direction button once to stop the engine. This will trigger the rst sequence of FYS/PSA. The reverse

unit is temporarily disabled so that the train will not move as you use the Direction button to trigger the sounds,

and Proto-Sound 3.0 has disabled operator control over the Horn/Whistle and Bell buttons until the full FYS/

PSA sequence is complete.

After waiting about 30 seconds for that sequence to run, press the Direction button again to trigger the second

sequence of FYS/PSA.

After about 30 seconds, press the Direction button again to trigger the third FYS/PSA sequence.

EP-5 Electric Engine with Ps3

The FYS/PSA will continue, and within a few seconds, the engine will start and move out on its own at the

current throttle setting, in the same direction it was traveling when you began the sequence. Once the bells turns

o, the operator regains control of the transformer’s Bell and Horn/Whislte buttons and can ring the bell or blow

the horn/whistle as usual.

Tips on Using FYS/PSA

• You can terminate FYS/PSA at any time by turning o power to the track for 15

seconds.

• You do not have to be in Forward to use FYS/PSA. At the conclusion of the full

sequence, the train will pull away from the station in whatever direction you were

going when you activated the feature.

• You can use FYS/PSA even if you are double-heading with another engine. If the

second engine is not equipped with Proto-Sound® 3.0, you must remember not to

leave the throttle at a high voltage level once you have stopped the engine to run

the FYS/PSA. Otherwise, the engine without FYS/PSA will begin vibrating on

the track as its motors strain to move the train, since they cannot be automatically

disabled during the FYS/PSA cycle (or if an original Proto-Sound engine, FYS/

PSA are triggered dierently and that engine’s motor-disable feature will not be

active when you run FYS/PSA in Proto-Sound® 3.0).

• FSY/PSA can be triggered from Neutral. It will operate the same way as if

triggered while in motion except that, at the conclusion of the FYS/PSA, the

engine will depart in the next direction of travel, as opposed to the direction it was

traveling before entering Neutral.

Proto-Coupler™ Operation

This locomotive is equipped with one or more coil-wound Proto-Couplers for remote uncoupling action.

Because Proto-Couplers are controlled through the Proto-Sound® 3.0 microprocessor, they do not require an

uncoupling track section or modication to your layout to function. You can re a coupler from neutral or while

in motion. Use the code shown below (and in the chart on page 7) to re the coupler(s).

Rear Coupler:

To re the rear coupler, quickly tap the Bell button once followed by three quick taps of the Horn/Whistle but-

ton, allowing approximately ½ second to lapse between each quick button press. The sound of the liftbar and

air line depletion will play, and the knuckle will be released.

EP-5 Electric Engine with Ps3

Front Coupler:

To re the front coupler (if your engine has one), quickly tap the Bell button once followed by four quick taps

of the Horn/Whistle button, allowing approximately 1/2 second to lapse between each quick button press. The

sound of the liftbar and air line depletion will play, and the knuckle will be released.

Speed Control:

M.T.H. engines equipped with Proto-Sound 3.0 have speed control capabilities that allow the engine to maintain

a constant speed up and down grades and around curves, much like an automobile cruise control. You can add

or drop cars on the run, and the engine will maintain the speed you set.

While the engine is programmed to start with the speed control feature activated, you can opt to turn it o. This

means the engine’s speed will fall as it labors up a hill and increases as it travels downward. It is also aected

by the addition or releasing of cars while on the run. Because the engine will run more slowly at a given throttle

voltage when speed control is on than when it is o, you should adjust the throttle to a lower power level for

operation with speed control o to avoid high-speed derailments. When speed control is o, the volume will

drop to allow for better low voltage operation.

To turn speed control on and o, put the engine in neutral, then quickly tap the transformer’s horn/whistle

button one time then quickly tap the Bell button two times, allowing approximately 1/2 second to lapse between

each quick button press. Repeat the 1 horn/whistle, 2 bells code to return it to the other condition. You will want

to do this during the initial neutral upon start-up if you ever couple this engine to another engine that is not

equipped with speed control to avoid damaging the motors in either engine. Each time you shut down the engine

completely, it will automatically turn speed control on.

Lock into a Direction:

You can lock your engine into a direction (forward, neutral, or reverse) so that it will not change directions. To

do this, put the engine into the direction you want (or into neutral to lock it into neutral), run it at a very slow

crawl (as slowly as it will move without halting), and quickly but rmly tap the Horn/Whistle button once

followed by three quick taps of the Bell button, allowing approximately ½ second to lapse between each quick

button press. Two horn/whistle blasts will indicate that the engine has made the change. The engine will not

change direction (including going into neutral) until you repeat the 1 horn/whistle, 3 bells code to return the

engine to its normal condition, even if the engine is kept without power for extended periods of time.

EP-5 Electric Engine with Ps3

Reset to Factory Defaults:

To override the settings you currently have assigned to the engine and reset it to its facto-

ry defaults, while in Neutral tap the Horn/Whistle button quickly once, followed by ve

quick taps of the Bell button, allowing approximately 1/2 second to lapse between each

quick button press. Two horn/whistle blasts will indicates that the engine has made the

change.

Automatic Sounds:

Certain Proto-Sound® 3.0 sound eects automatically play in programmed conventional

mode conditions:

• Squealing Brakes play any time the engine’s speed decreases rapidly.

• Cab Chatter plays at random intervals when the engine idles in neutral.

• Engine Start-up and Shut-down sounds play when the engine is initially powered

on or is powered o for ve seconds or more.

Maintenance

Lubricating and Greasing Instructions

The engine should be well oiled and greased in order to run properly.

Regularly lubricate all axels and pickup rollers to prevent squeaking. Use light household

oil, such as that found in M.T.H’s maintenance kit. Do not over oil. Use only a drop or

two on each pivot point.

The locomotive’s internal gearing was greased at the factory and should not need addi-

tional grease until after 50 hours of operation or one year, whichever comes rst. Follow

the greasing instructions below. Note that in some tightly packed engines you may need

to move internal components temporarily in order to access the gears.

1. To access the gear box, remove the cab from the chassis by unscrewing the body mount

screws as seen above and lifting the cab from the chassis.

2. Once the cab is removed, remove the trucks by unscrewing the black Phillips motor

mount screw located on the underside of the drive trucks (see above).

3. Once the motor mount screw has been removed, pull the motor away from the truck

block and lightly coat the motor worm gear and bronze drive gear (in the truck block)

with grease.

4. Reassemble the truck and motor, being careful not to pinch away wires between the

truck block and motor mount.

Body Mount Screws

EP-5 Electric Engine with Ps3

5. After repeating the procedure for the other motor, reassemble the chassis and body,

being careful that the wire harnesses are not caught between the chassis and body, and

reinstall the body mount screws.

Lubricate the outside truck block idler and drive gears with grease. Use the diagram

shown below as a guide and add grease to the points marked.

Cleaning The Wheels, Tires, and Track

Periodically check the locomotive wheels and

pickups for dirt and buildup, which can cause poor

electrical contact and traction and prematurely wear

out the neoprene traction tires. Wheels and tires can

be cleaned using denatured (not rubbing) alchohol

applied with a cotton swab.

To clean the track, use RailKing Track Cleaning

Fluid found in Maintenance Kit (30-50051) or

denatured (not rubbing) alcohol and a clean rag.

Unplug the transformer and wipe the rails of the

track, turning the rag frequently to ensure that you

are using clean cloth on the rails. Thereafter, keep

and eye on the track and clean it when it gets dirty

to ensure good electrical contact and to lengthen the

life of the tires.

Clean any type of track with this heavy-duty track

cleaning block (40-1099). Durably constructed from

ABS plastic, the block includes a built-in cleaning

pad. For really stuborn track, you can insert

sandpaper into the block in just a few quick steps.

Traction Tire Replacement Instructions

Your locomotive is equipped with two neoprene rubber traction tires on each powered

truck block. While these tires are extremely durable, you may need to replace them at

some point.

First, remove the truck sides from the truck block. To do this, turn your engine upside

down. If there are visible Phillips screw heads between the truck frame and truck block

(see below), go to step A. If not, go to step B.

A. Remove the two Phillips screws that attach each truck side to the truck block.

B. Remove the trucks from the chassis and the truck sides from the trucks in order to slip

the new tire over the grooved drive wheel. Once the truck sides have been removed:

1. Make sure the old tire has been completely removed from the groove in the drive

wheel, using a razor blade or small athead screwdriver to pry away any remains.

2. Slip the new tire onto the wheel. You may nd it useful to use two small athead

screwdrivers to stretch the tire over the wheel.

3. If you twist the tire while stretching it over the wheel, you will need to remove and

reinstall the tire. Otherwise your engine will wobble while operating.

4. Make sure the tire is fully seated inside the groove. Use a razor blade to trim away any

excess tire that doesn’t seat itself inside the groove properly.

5.Reassemble in reverse order.

One set of replacement tires is packaged with the model. Additional tires are available

directly from the M.T.H. Parts Department.

Troubleshooting Proto-Sound 3.0 Problems

Although Proto-Sound 3.0 has been designed and engineered for ease of use, you may have some questions

during initial operation. The following table should answer most questions. If your problem cannot be resolved

with this table, contact M.T.H. for assistance.

Starting Up

Remedy

When I rst turn the power on, the engine will not

begin to run. I have to turn the throttle o and then

on again to get the engine to operate.

This is normal behavior. To prevent accidental

high-speed start-ups, Proto-Sound 2.0 is

programmed to start up in neutral anytime track

power has been turned o for several seconds.

Whistle/Horn Remedy

When I press the whistle/horn button, the bell

comes on instead.

Reverse the transformer leads.

I can’t get the horn to blow when I press the

whistle button.

You may be pressing the button too quickly. Try

pressing the whistle/horn button more slowly, tak-

ing approximately one full second to fully depress

the button.

Bell Remedy

When I press the whistle button, the bell sounds. Reverse the transfomer leads.

I can’t get the bell to ring when I press the bell

button.

You may be pressing the button too quickly. Try

pressing the whistle/horn button more slowly, tak-

ing approximately one full second to fully depress

the button.

I can’t get the bell to ring when I press the bell

button.

Check the wiring of the seperate button.

Coupler Remedy

When I try to re the coupler, FYS starts. You are waiting too long between whistle button

presses.

The Proto-Coupler won’t let the engine uncouple

on the y.

Try lubricating the coupler knucle with a dry

graphite lubricant. Do NOT use oil.

The coupler does not re or stay coupled. The coupler needs to be cleaned. Wipe with

denatured alcohol (not rubbing alcohol) and let dry.

EP-5 Electric Engine with Ps3

Cab Chatter

Remedy

Sometimes the Cab Chatter sounds don’t play Cab Chatter plays only in neutral at random

intervals.

Lock-out Remedy

I can’t get the engine to run after I power up the

transformer. It sits still with the engine sounds

running.

The engine is locked into neutral position. Follow

the procedure in the “Lock into a Direction”

section.

The engine won’t lock into foward, neutral, or

reverse.

Engine speed must be below 10 scale mph (approx.

10 volts or less in conventional mode).

Volume Remedy

The sounds seem distorted, especially when the

whistle or bell is activated.

Proto-Sound 3.0 volume is set too high. Turn the

volume control knob on the bottom of the chassis

counter-clockwise to reduce the volume.

Battery Remedy

The engine will not leave the initial neutral setting. Check to be sure the battery is installed and fully

charged. See the “Self- Charging Battery Back-Up”

section.

I get no sounds when the engine shifts between

directions.

The battery may be dead or need to be charged. See

the “Self Charging Battery Back-up section.”

After I turn o my transformer, my engine

continues to make sounds before quitting.

Proto-Sound 3.0 is designed to countinue to sound

for a few secounds after power to the track has

been shut o.

FYS/PSA Remedy

The FYS/PSA sounds occassionally repeat

themselves.

Proto-Sound 3.0 has a built-in random number

generator that randomly selects each sound clip to

play. Because there are a limited number of sound

clips available in FYS/PSA sequence, it is probable

that some of these sound clips will be repeated

from time to time.

EP-5 Electric Engine with Ps3

FYS/PSA Remedy

Once in FYS/PSA, the engine doesn’t go into

reverse.

So that the FYS/PSA eects can be as realtistic

as possible, Proto-Sound 3.0 disables the

reversing unit whenever FYS/PSA is enabled.

This way the engine remains still at its stop

as the operator cycles through the FYS/PSA

sequences.

When the FYS/PSA enters its last sequence the

bell automatically comes on.

FYS/PSA is programmed to start ringing the bell

at that point. After approximately 12 seconds it

will automatically turn o.

When FYS/PSA is enabled, pressing the whistle

and bell buttons has no eect.

Because FYS/PSA must control various eects

in each sequence, Proto-Sound® 3.0 takes con-

trol of these sound eects until you exit.

I push the direction button but the next sound

clip in the sequence does not play or the engine

does not come out of FYS/PSA after fourth

press of the direction button.

Each FYS/PSA clip must play for approx. 30

seconds before FYS/PSA will advance to the

next step in the FYS/PSA cycle. Wait at least

30 seconds in each FYS/PSA sound clip before

pressing the direction button.

EP-5 Electric Engine with Ps3

Additional Features Accessible With The DCS Remote

Transformer Compatibility and Wiring Chart

Proto-Sound® 3.0 is designed to work with most standard AC transformers. The chart below lists the many

compatible transformers. Note that many of the operational commands described in these instructions require

a bell button, so if your transformer does not have its own bell button, you should consider adding one to get

the full benet of the system. In addition, the chart details how the terminals on these transformers should be

attached to your layout.
